Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept can be found when x=0, so find f(x) when x=0. So the first step is to evaluate (2/3)^0, which is 1. According to the equation this is multiplied by -1, so the y-intercept is -1. You can also use a graphing calculator (or Desmos) so you can see a physical representation of it. Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

23.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change can be computed as ...

((new value)/(original value) -1) × 100%

= (58/76 -1) × 100%

≈ (0.763 -1) × 100% = -23.7%

The decrease is 23.7%.

The sentence sequence is "BDAC".

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Derek is rolling a die many times and he is recording when he rolls a dice of three. So we have to identify from largest to smallest.
The first largest is 30 times. Because of 3*10=30, so he rolls three ten times. So the first option is B.
The second largest is 20 times. Derek rolled dice three-six times because of 3*6=18. So the second option is D.
The third-largest is 10 times. In this, he rolls three times. Because of 3*3=9. So the option is A.
The final option is C. Derek rolls five times. 3*1=3. In this, he rolled only one time. So the sequence is BDAC.
